Detailed Description

Keep all object browsing related functionality in one code base. This code base will have several UI modes i.e. Journal mode(for objects-centric notion), Calibre-like mode(for browsing books), Rhytmbox-like mode(for audio files) etc.

This code follows Design Team/Proposals/Journal mockups.

Benefit to Sugar

Browsing different types of sugar object looks the same in many cases(search, tagging etc.). So, keep unified code base and do not split it could be useful idea.

Scope

  • affects Journal code in sugar package
  • adds new activity for <0.86 releases
  • Datastore API should provide tags functionality for 0.86+

How To Test

In progress..

User Experience

All objects browsing features will look equally. It should mean that users will reuse theirs Journal experience in browsing books for example.

Dependencies

For >=0.86, all functionality will come from sugar package, for <0.86 it will be packaged in activity.

Contingency Plan

Eat my socks.
